Micro > they "borrowed" it from the Social Security trust fund which would have groown exponentially by sheer investing in the stock market..


Except,
That Social Security is NOT invested in the Stock Market.
It is invested in nearly worthless 'Treasury Notes'.

In my opinion S.S. needs to morph from the Ponzi scheme it
is today to an actual retirement program supported by
real investments in America's largest and most profitable
companies.

There should be a revolution of MASSIVE SIZE if that happens. CONGRESS STOLE half of the money that was in SOCIAL SECURITY to pay for programs that they did not have money for so they "borrowed" it from the Social Security trust fund which would have groown exponentially by sheer investing in the stock market..

CUT THE BUDGET. Oh, that's right. WHAT Budget?

FORCE a balanced budget requirement act to control the irrational spending habits of every politician who goes to Washington and thinks he/she has to come up with some idea that costs money we do not have...

Politicians are the worst things on earth....
